Um, okay, fine, this is just a teaser for Chapter 11. How can you explain the lack of content in it... But I'm just confused by one simple question, why the hell do you need it at all? Just release a normal chapter when it's ready. What's the point of all these ridiculous movements? Just stop wasting your efforts on extraneous things, set priorities, instead of shifting the blame to the supposedly overly demanding fans of the game. A lot of paths in a game are of course good if there is an opportunity to do them, but if it becomes so difficult, then maybe it's worth reducing them a little, as well as the number of characters?) It's just logical to do what you can and calculate your capabilities.

yes , the focus should be put on one thing , and its the main game , i understund why he would want to rework them now , since usually the playerbase drops after the game is finished anyway , but still ...

My sus radar tells me he's bad, and that the grumpy cop might end up being the good one instead.

yo Neon, I have a question, is Viola's path pretty much over if Guy rapes her in the store? or is it planned to get back to her somehow anyway? so far all her later scenes are available only if Guy is nice or a bit of dick to her, the darkest path didn't have anything after the scene...

 

[Avaron1974]

Ashe also brought up the possibility of having a threesome with the MC and another blonde. Maybe planting the seed for a possible throuple?

That was flirty talk. She's made it quite clear she doesn't share, same with Nicki.

Ashe is looking for something serious.

On the Dark Path he rapes her. Of course she's not going to be willing to give him a chance for more.

Maybe he is a good raper? I thought you can still hire her as a maid?

Mason may become my fave in this game.

Mason is precious and must be protected at all costs (and given head scritches).

The dev has explained it literally few posts above yours:

Respectfully, I don't make content for this forum. I make it for my supporters. My supporters understand why I put out the (sometimes bite-sized) content that I do, because I communicate it to them, and if they want to reach out directly, I'll explain my plans and reasons in more detail. My concern is only ever in delivering them what I promise them, for their support. That means $15 supporters get some kind of playable demo monthly, $5 supporters get a weekly update with a look at the script and art, and $2 supporters get exclusive bi-weekly art and story features.

It was a monthly update for the paid supporters. The point of these "ridiculous movements" is to give them some bang for their buck monthly.

I didn't ask about her giving Guy a chance, lol. Did Ashe "give him a chance" after the scene on the street and willingly go on a date night?

 

[Bmagada]

I don't think so, don't remember exact conversation, but i think it was Ashe who said she is not in favor of flings and sharing.

Shes also the one who gets you to tell her you want two blondes at the same time soooooooo......

 

[Bmagada]

But it could have been have been done over 12-18 months ago..instead of having update after update after update...all the while knowing it still needed doing and would fuck everyone's saves up and force them to restart. Not a good look three years after it started.

Holy crap read the update. Do you have a time machine? No? Then all this backseat quarterbacking in hindsight is just complaining. He wrote himself into a corner and is aiming to fix it. Stuff got in the way and dude has a life and he chose more content over a rework because his job is to please his subscribers and not people on this forum so he's doing it now. No one is going to change what is. Also its not like you have to reread everything, get passed the first chapter and put the peddle down on that control key.

Yes, she also seems to like and admire Brittani very much. You even score some points with Ashe by admitting you know her.

Pretty much over, but not over-over. In Chapter 10, Guy starts to ask his lawyer about her, only to have her tell him to stop talking. In the Chapter 11 teaser, he asks her again, and Lane explains that the situation with “the Pavlischeva girl” was taken care of. When he tries to press the issue, she basically says he’s a moron, and he needs to stay away from her.

So, just because a character isn’t actively around/being seen, doesn’t mean that they don’t exist or will never be seen again. But, in Viola’s specific case, you’re very unlikely to see any more ero scenes on her dark path.

That's cool, when I saw the game promoted in the latest updates I thought it was the Remake already.
So Remake eta?

Sometime this month. Trying to get the Alpha done this weekend, but we’ll see how it all goes.

 

[aack]

Taboo patch not working for me on the latest version. Anyone else?

 

[rafa30]

No Brittani in this update?

 

[Elduriel]

No Brittani in this update?

not a full update, just a teaser

 

[katzenstreu]

Where Are My Favorite Characters: Literally every love interest has appeared in the last two updates. Ashe only had a small part, but she also had almost an entire update to herself, so her inclusion felt less pressing. The nice thing is that we're kind of coming to a point where several of the main characters (Nicki, Ashe, Risa, Mason) have had full ero scenes on all their alignment paths. Pepper and Viola have had full scenes on their dark paths. This means that one of the biggest headaches for each character (multi-position, multi-cumshot sex scenes) are slowly being winnowed down, which removes a substantial burden for each character. So, plot developments should come a little faster, and girls who haven't had sex scenes yet will get them (Gabby and Brittani are next-up, and Carolina some time later this year).

awww man. still no pepper scene for mr. nice guy anytime soon.

 

[Liftoff7073]

ooph, that's sad, especially since we were denied anal in her scene, and also Ashe's second dark path meeting (the "date" night) worked so great with the anticipation and fear, you clearly can write this stuff well! Hopefully this game won't go the way when a dark scene/rape means it's game over or path closed and character has no more future interactions...
also please change your mind and bring Viola's dark path back, she's my fav and her scenes and dynamics with Guy were so great
